I'm a but behind with reviewing but I finally made it to this! What a unique interpretation! The image is the guy in Heaven with his umbrella! So imaginative!
This is such a bittersweet story - bitter for an obvious reason, sweet because of the depth of love in it.
You are such a good storyteller!
Thank you for sharing!

You have penned a lovely free-verse poem about a tragic accident that took your husband's life way too soon. Like your interpretation of this artwork challenge.

Hi pattipac, Thank you for reading and reviewing my work and for you kind words, It is not true only my imagination on this image. But it could be true for someone and I tried to think how they would feel. Many Cheers Christine

Comment from danpald
How beautiful the poem does flow
With desire to be held so close
For the loss of one so dear
Comes to play with a picture here
I see you say it is not true
Your imagination wrote it through
still the power of the poem
Says this is beauty held in form
The best to be the reality
That when one is lost to tragedy
To see walking in the clouds
Knowing never is one lost in life

Comment from PoemsOfDD
Christine, this is quite a gripping read. I'm so pleased to see in your end notes that this was all from your imagination. I wouldn't wish this tragedy on anyone. I've just finished reading one and it was funny and now yours in sad - what a contrast. Amazing what is conjured up out of someones head from the same picture. Well done for this dramatic read ~ DD

Hi DD, Thanks a bunch for stopping by to read my sad poem and yes it is so interesting reading everyones posts. I am still catching up amd enjoying the ride. I also find it fascinating that so many different genre's and imaginative poems can arise from one image and I do so enjoy being in this group Cheers Christine😃
Comment from BeasPeas
Hi Christine. I'm happy to read in your note that it isn't true.
You've done a good job in the poem of making it seem real,
though. Your well-written free verse tells us a sad story but
with longing to be together at the end. Marilyn

Hi Debra, Yes I have had a few reviews of comcern that it was a true story and No it isnt just my thoughts on the image. I always try to think up a story to suit and I came up with this. I am happy you enjoyed this and Nice to meet you Cheers Christine😃
Comment from Liberty Justice
BRAVO!! Christy, take a bow. Raining in My Heart is such a dynamic spiritual poem. The sad story behind the poem is told with riveting sorrow and yet so much hope was given for a safe return. In life, we have to be so careful and watch our backs. See my poem, Watch your back, and my book on my profile home page. WELL DONE!!

Hi Liberty Justice, Thank you very much for your review and comments , I thought a different take on the image would be an interesting challenge and it all just tumbled out once I started, I am pleased you liked this too and thank you so much for your support. I will catch up on you work as soon as I get a chance over the next day or so, with many Cheers Christine😃
Comment from Pantygynt
I was so glad to read the disclaimer at the end. Fo an imagined situation the feelings you express come over very real indeed, although were it autobiographical I doubt that you could have written it quite like this.
I have always thought that to have to bear such bad tidings must be almost as bad as having to receive them and the somewhat gauche comments expressed in an artificially archaic way by the two police bring them alive in their awkwardness.

Hi Pantygynt, Many thanks for reading my poem and what a challenge and I am looking forward to reading everyones post and apologise for my delays . Yes I tried to imagine how the players would feel as I think it would be everyones fear to be in this situation. And the police men and women have an awful job sometimes. i hooe my poem did justice to these emotions. Cheers And thanks again Christine😃

Hi Gypsy, Thanks for your great review and no I live in Australia ( in a city called Ballarat in the state of Victoria ) and have always signed my emails or responses with Cheers, (Just me). When I saw the image I thought he was walking in the clouds and hence that is where I started from and the story just seemed to write itself. Thanks for your hug ,one back at you, plus a big CHEERS. Christine PS Victoria and California both have bad fires usually at the same time .
